Even though Legon Cities came out victorious with a 3-2 home win against Berekum Chelsea, Coach Paa Kwesi Fabian expressed in a post-match conference that his defense went a bit asleep, resulting in conceding two goals.
“My defense went asleep, before the commencement of the game i told them that Berekum Chelsea is a very difficult side and therefore we shouldn’t take this for granted but then they went to sleep a little bit and then we conceded those two silly goals”.
Fabin highlighted the importance of his team moving away from the relegation zone.
“Well I think is a good thing and it will help us to prepare for the next game knowing that we are a little bit safe, we are not safe yet but we believe that with a little bit of hard work, we will stay out of this relegation battle”.
Legon Cities is currently sitting at 10th place on the league log with 38 points after playing 28 matches. Their next game is going to be an away match against Kotoko at Baba Yara.
